Overview Prevodine Ointment

Prevodine Ointment acts as both an antiseptic and disinfectant, combating infection in wounds and cuts. Its antimicrobial properties eliminate harmful microorganisms and inhibit their proliferation, preventing further infection. Apply only externally, following your doctor's instructions precisely. Ensure the affected area is clean and dry before application, washing your hands thoroughly beforehand and afterward. Consistent use maximizes effectiveness. Avoid overuse; it won't hasten healing and may increase side effects. Maintaining cleanliness of the affected area enhances the ointment's efficacy. Possible side effects include localized skin irritation, redness, or itching. Consult your physician if these persist. Avoid eye contact; rinse with water and seek immediate medical help if contact occurs. Discontinue use immediately and seek medical advice if an allergic reaction develops, indicated by symptoms such as rash, facial or throat swelling, breathing difficulties, dizziness, fainting, or nausea.
